Applies to Civic and Recreation Services
Officer Responsible Manager Civic and Recreation Services
Associated Documents Nil
Supersedes POL035-Roads and POL033-Roads
Legislation All related Acts or Regulations, etc
History Adopted October 2008
OBJECTIVES
• To create a safe environment which minimises the risk of conflict between different road users
(pedestrians, motor vehicles and cyclists).
• To determine the engineering standards and the subsequent level of advice and assistance for
vehicular driveway construction within the road reserve.
• To minimise the incidence of erosion and subsequent sedimentation.
• To reduce ongoing maintenance.
• To reduce the incidence of trip hazards for pedestrians.
POLICY
• All driveway construction and maintenance requires Council approval under the Roads Act 1993 and construction maintenance costs are the responsibility of the property owner.
• It is the responsibility of the developer to provide a driveway design where the driveway is a result of a new development or redevelopment and the standard design cannot be applied.
• In the case of new development or redevelopment in urban areas where the proposed floor level is greater than 1 metre above or below the crown of the road, a full design including profiles is to be provided by the developer
• Council will not provide assistance where the driveway serves a commercial property or is a second access.
• Council will not contribute to the cost of alterations or adjustments required to utility services to facilitate the construction of a driveway

LOCATION
In all cases, new roads and vehicle access points should be designed to maximise vehicle and pedestrian safety.
I. TFNSW MAIN AND REGIONAL ROADS
Vehicular access is denied to TFNSW Main and Regional Roads, unless there is no safe and practicable alternative access location and the agreement of the TFNSW is obtained. Where there is no alternative to access onto an TFNSW Main or Regional Road, Council will normally require the provision of a single point of access or the creation of a service road capable of serving a number of properties.
In addition, because of the volume of traffic using these roads, Council will seek measures, such as mounded landscaping, to ensure that access denial to certain roads is maintained. Refer to Council’s Section 94 Contributions Plan for further details.
II. MAJOR AND MINOR URBAN DISTRIBUTOR ROADS
Driveways on major and minor distributor roads are to be designed to allow entry and exit in a forward direction.
A Positive Covenant (or other legally binding agreement acceptable to Council) is to be created on the title of new lots having direct vehicular access to a major or minor distributor road (long term) requiring driveways to be designed to allow entry and exit in a forward direction. Where concern with regard to sight distances exists, the location of driveways is subject to the standards in relevant AUSTROADS Guidelines.
Design and Construction
1. All vehicular access ways from the road formation to the property boundary in public roads are to be approved before construction work commences and approval shall not be unreasonably withheld provided such proposals comply with Council’s relevant Engineering Standards.
2. Applicants will be supplied with concise guidelines to the appropriate Engineering Standards.
3. For single and dual occupancy residential driveways only:
• Typical Situation – The Standard drawings are to be used for typical situations that meet the assumed site criteria specified on the drawings. The site criteria includes cross fall of the footpath area and the roadway, and levels and gradients internal to the property. Particular attention is drawn to these criteria and also potential conflict with underground services.
135 Rusden Street PO Box 75A Armidale NSW 2350 P: 1300 136 833 ABN 39 642 954 203 [email protected] www.armidaleregional.nsw.gov.au
RURAL DRIVEWAY APPLICATION
2021-2022
2021/2022
• Non typical situations – where site conditions are outside the assumed site criteria specifications of the standard drawings, Council will provide design assistance to create a suitable driveway profile at no cost.
4. For concrete driveways, Council will when requested, give access to its contractor at current Concreting Contract Rates for the construction of the driveway free of on costs (GST is applicable). This is subject to the availability of a contractor at the time.
5. Gutter bridges and access pipe culverts will only be approved where considered appropriate by the Transport Operations Manager or his Nominee. Approval will normally only be given in rural situations.
6. Unless exempt in writing, gutter bridges and access culverts are considered to be “temporary” structures in urban areas and, where approved for installation, the cost of their construction and maintenance is to be met by the landholder served by the structure.
7. Council reserves the right to limit its involvement in undertaking vehicular driveway construction for any reason.
Maintenance
Where it comes to Council’s notice that driveway maintenance is required, including gutter bridges and access pipe culverts, which remain outstanding after notification to the landholder, such maintenance will be undertaken by Council and the costs charged to the landholder (Refer Roads Act - Section 138 and Section 218).
Where it becomes necessary for Council to cut through a driveway, there is no guarantee implied or otherwise that driveways installed in other than plain concrete will be matched with existing paving.
In all cases, the following guidelines should be consulted.
• Armidale Dumaresq Council Engineering Code
• Council’s Parking Code.
• AUSTROADS Guide to Traffic Engineering Practice Part 5 (NAASRA).
• RTA Guide to Traffic Generating Developments.
• AS 2890 Parking Facilities.
• GHD Armidale City Council Traffic and Transportation Study Final Report, February 1996
• RTA Road design Guide

HAZARD ANALYSIS HOW TO USE THIS RISK ASSESSMENT FORM
List each basic step for the job in the table provided and all the hazards associated with each step in the next column. Use the Hazard
identification table to help you identify the hazards for each step (use the numbers). Hazards need not be restricted to those listed.
1. Use the Assessment of risks table to identify and record the initial risk rating of each step. High risk = 1, low risk = 6.
2. Use the Risk control measures table to help you list control measures required to eliminate, reduce or change the hazard for a safer
workplace.
3. Revise the risk ranking using the Assessment of Risks Table.
